Lady Susan or The Captive Heart, A Jane Austen Bodice Ripper

November 14, 2020 @ 2:00 pm

Manipulative, callous and cruel – the beautiful widow Lady Susan Vernon is on a manhunt. To restore her broken fortunes, the greatest coquette in England sets out to snare a rich husband. She will stop at nothing to achieve this goal, including forcing her own daughter Frederica into an unwanted marriage. Will Lady Susan’s weakness for pleasure derail her own notorious intrigues? Literature’s greatest villainess is about to take center stage. This humorous adaptation by Lynn Marie Macy illuminates Austen’s earliest novella while paying homage to Georgian theatrical traditions.
